With my finals close, I haven't had much time for painting, but I have been slowly working and now I can finally show you the results. After all the time, I now have a first full unit. I almost can't believe it!
Anyway, I have finished the remaining five Vestals, including the standard bearer and the musician. Not much more to be said here, really, apart from the fact that I really love these models and am looking forward to the Dark Elf kickstarter Raging Heroes have planned.
I'm probably not going to take a photo of the whole unit together, as I think the two group shots show them off better, but they're even easier to rank up than I expected them to be.
The standard bearer:
I have to say I don't really like the skulls on top of the banner. While they may fit the "real" Dark Elves, they don't really suit the style of our army. It would be very hard to remove them, though, and the model was otherwise too good to risk damaging it.
The standard itself won't stay this plain, but I'm still deciding what to put on it and how to paint it. And I want to focus on finishing more models, to be finally able to see them (and my boyfriend) in action.
Back view: (it's hard to see, but there's a blade at the lower end of the standard)
The musician:
